THE HISPANIC NATIONAL BAR ASSOCIATION REJECTS TRUMP'S RACIST ASSERTIONS
Washington, DC – The Hispanic National Bar Association represents the interests of nearly 54 million Hispanics/Latinos in the United States, which is approximately 17% of the U.S. population. By his recent derogatory remarks about Mexican immigrants, Donald Trump’s disrespect of such a large segment of the population of America is not only unbelievable, but outright wrong. His comment that Mexico only sends rapists and criminals to the United States reveals a racist nature that cannot and will not go unnoticed by the Hispanic National Bar Association nor the Latino community.
Those who seek our highest public office should attempt to engage all Americans, not divide us. His comments are clearly divisive and racist and do nothing to promote equality and justice for all. Trump’s statements reveal a bias that all Americans should reject and respond to accordingly. We cannot stand silent and allow Trump to promote such racist and discriminatory behavior. This is the time for all Americans to take a stand against his insensitive, offensive and untrue statements.
The HNBA calls for a boycott of all of Trump business ventures, including golf courses, hotels, and restaurants. We salute NBC/Universal, Univision and Macy’s for ending their association with Trump, and we join them in standing up against bigotry and racist rhetoric. Other businesses and corporations should follow the lead of NBC/Universal, Univision and Macy’s and take similar actions against Donald Trump’s business interests. We can and will make a difference.
Cynthia D. Mares HNBA National President
Shouldn’t they be representing all Americans interests? Guess they only care about latinos. Racist?
So the Hispanic National Bar Association doesn't serve the interests of their white or black clients?
Irony is lost on leftists.
But then what do I know? I'm a member of Mathematicians Who Only Use Even Numbers!
Nice how they add "only" to Trump's comment.
It’s a good thing this wasn’t put out by the Caucasian Heterosexual Male National Bar Association, or I’d question the source’s ability to be an impartial, inclusive group!
Trying to spin the “difference” between the two La Razas’ is like trying to spin the difference between the Nazi swastika and the Mayan/Aztec swastika.....it just don’t fly.
Can we have a National White Bar Assiciation? Of course not. It’s racist. And so is this group. Trump is right.
Is there a White bar association? And why not? This would be considered racist no?
Tell Juan, Pedro and Cisco to STFU and put some mufflers on those low riders.
I’d settle for a German-American bar association, so long as they called it The Master Race.
If you see what I mean.
Of course, being Hispanic, these people have no knowledge of US law. But this action might place the lawyers and their organization in serious legal jeopardy.
The Hispanic lawyers' boycott is clearly intended as an expression of protest for purely political reasons.......involving the interests of the foreign country they swear allegiance to.
In the United States, the antiboycott provisions of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) apply to all "U.S. persons" (defined to include individuals and companies located in the United States and their foreign affiliates).
The antiboycott provisions are intended to prevent United States citizens and companies being used as instrumentalities of a foreign government's foreign policy.
These persons are subject to the law when their activities relate to the sale, purchase, or transfer of goods or services (including the sale of information) within the United States or between the United States and a foreign country. This covers exports and imports, financing, forwarding and shipping, and certain other transactions that may take place wholly offshore.....AND/OR ACROSS THE BORDER.
No, no no. French American for me. Oh hell lets just divide up in our respective tribes and have at it/S
We Germans already laid claim to the Master Race. You Frenchmen will have to be the Royale Race. ;)
And National Organization of Women think he’s sexist.
And jackasses think he’s specist.
Why? Why is there a Hispanic National Bar Association, etc.? Isn't the point "Equal justice under law"? That's what's inscribed over the Supreme Court building. Anything else is in fact injustice, and a war against our country.
If you're looking for a special-snowflake, special Mafia interpretation of our laws to suit you and your pals alone, maybe you need to get your a** back to Hispania, or wherever your particular "raza" hangs out.
The fact that there is a Hispanic National Bar Association is racist in itself. In promoting diversity, the Obama Administration has worked hard to separate Americans and pit them against one another.
The Race, do not use the Spanish, it helps them hide their racism.
I don’t recall a White Anglo Protestant Bar Association. The name in itself explains a very nasty racist bias. These leftist bigots have had control of the conversation far too long.
Political correctness has taken over logic and rational . The attempt to appease these nit wits has gotten way out of control like a metastasized cancer it has spread through out our schools of learning like a wild fire consuming every good thing in sight . I’m sure Hitler would be proud of it’s effect . Can this foul disease be contained and brought under control ? Perhaps ,,, Trump might be the cure if elected , as he claims to and acts like he stands firmly against this unbelievable stupidity run amuck .
